SUMMARY:In the Main Gallery: Jeremy Riffe's Appalachian Secularization
DESCRIPTION:Jeremy Riffe’s photography exhibition presents both active and abandoned churches\, placing them in visual conversation with one another. Through this juxtaposition\, Riffe offers a reflection on secularization in Appalachia—highlighting churches that remain centers of community alongside those that stand unused\, weathered\, or forgotten. Together\, the photographs explore themes of faith\, memory\, and cultural transition\, documenting how belief and tradition continue to evolve across the Appalachian region.

SUMMARY:In the Main Gallery: Heather Rousseau's Making it in America
DESCRIPTION:Southwest Virginia has become a vital place for those seeking safety and a new beginning for decades. In recent years\, our region has welcomed hundreds of neighbors—from Afghan families following the 2021 withdrawal and Ukrainians escaping invasion\, to Latino families who are navigating the complexities of shifting national policies. \nThis project is the culmination of five years of visual journalism and a two-year fellowship with The Secular Society. Through in-depth reporting for The Roanoke Times\, photojournalist Heather Rousseau has sought to document not just the challenges of displacement\, but the resilience of the human spirit. While many newcomers arrive with nothing\, they bring an indomitable determination to contribute and thrive.

SUMMARY:Speaking Engagement: Remarkable Trees of Virginia with Jeff Kirwan
DESCRIPTION:Arbor Day is coming soon and in celebration\, we will host Jeff Kirwan on April 9 for a presentation about his beautiful book\, Remarkable Trees of Virginia (reprint coming soon). \n\n\n\nAs The University of Virginia Press states\, “this stunning collaboration between the noted garden writer Nancy Ross Hugo and the photographer Robert Llewellyn showcases the fruits of an effort begun in 2004 to research\, locate\, and photograph Virginia’s most remarkable trees. Four years later\, more than one thousand trees had been officially nominated to the project and many others suggested for possible inclusion. The results\, presented in this elegant\, four-color volume\, are astounding. Hugo and Kirwan\, the project coordinators\, have selected a sample of trees and “tree places” that illustrate the enormous variety\, startling beauty\, and fascinating history of Virginia’s trees”.
